what game is it

>reflection physics
OP is retarded, next thread

Bleach Brave Souls.

Its decent and its one of the few gacha games you can play without needing to buy premium currency because of the amount they give through missions

Yes, Reflection physics.

Tell me, what modern games have mirrors that accurately reflect not only the player, but their actions and movement in a mirror image?

>Yes, reflection physics
No, a second render from a different coordinate.

You're a moron

How do you know real life reflections arent just God rendering you from different coordinates?

because it's really expensive, rendering-wise, unless you can make it so:
1. mirrors will never reflect each other
2. mirrors will never take up a significant portion of screen space, and
3. you're not doing any heavy processing while rendering a mirror
basically it's re-rendering the scene for each mirror you see from its perspective, so any strain you put on the hardware will be multiplied by the number of mirrors in view. this isn't a big issue in this mobile game you're looking at because the mirrors are like 100x100px, the distance from the mirrors being fixed/limited, and it having pretty simple scenes to begin with. in any first or third person free-moving camera, no such guarantees can be made, and you can usually put those resources to better use elsewhere

This, OP confirmed for retard.

Because real reflections are a result of making a surface that allows photons to bounce off of it at a consistent angle without scattering? Pic related would be nigh fucking impossible to accomplish in a game engine, because light is complex as fuck, and the "best tech" is made by finding the cheapest way to approximate/cheese how light behaves irl

um, no

Is it photons? Or God

What does the game engine have to do with it?
All you need is support for real-time ray-tracing

>All you need is support for real-time ray-tracing
...which is super expensive. there's a reason that raytrace lighting is generally reserved for tools like renderman, redshift, cycles, and other '3d production' renderers - because people using those tools can sacrifice time and power for a better image. games cannot, as most players don't have quad-SLI Titan X's, and as such, must settle for prebaked shadows, cubemaps, and similar methods of approximation

That's not a true reflection, they just took the current frame, flipped it and rendered it as a texture.
It's effectively a TV screen showing what the player currently sees, like the ones by the side of the track in mariokart

nope, it's a rendering from a camera at the position of the mirror

>Set projection matrix to a cylinder instead of standard for the refection render target draw pass.
Easy.
Now a more complex shape would require raytracing but a cylinder is easy.

this fucking idea guy

Yeah but game engines will support it once mainstream GPUs do
There's already dedicated ray-tracing cards

Uncharted 4 has mirrors

Also that's an on rails camera game where the Devs can guarantee the mirror will never be more than a few hundred pixels on screen

It's just a shadow

He's talking about the intersection mirrors
God my fucking town could use those

That's just a cubemap reflection lol

>t. I talk out of my ass on Sup Forums because I can
it's rendering the scene from a different angle at a lower resolution. cubemap projection would be hi-res, but not show any gameplay objects (or at least they wouldn't look as hi-res as the static background)
see

such an amazing accomplishment. meanwhile, doom 3 had working mirrors back in 2004 and actually used one for a nifty scare

>cube maps cannot be updated while the game is running

>its the "i dont know how mirrors work in video games" episode again.

show me an example, will eat socks

The game has a decent amount of lewd tits in their character sprites despite using the censored american pictures for cutscenes

uh, you can render directly onto textures, sweetie

congrats, you've written a post that highlights your arrogance while providing 0 substance.
again, if you show me a released game that utilizes real-time updating cubemaps that doesn't look like shit, then I'll eat my fucking words

>All you need is support for real-time ray-tracing
:^)

>sprites
>clearly 3d models

wut

PowerVR hardware can do it already

Thats just during specials. During regular combat, its "3D" Sprites

Any sufficiently expensive hardware can run any sufficiently constrained approximation.
Doesn't mean shit for the market.
